Waiting at Ben Gurion Airport

We had big plans today but a few things kind of messed it up. First we wanted to see a bit more but the heat really sapped our energy. I could tell that the team was really dragging because they are tired. But we did see the ancient site of Meggido where the final battle in Revelation will take place. Then we traveled to Caesarea to see Herod the Great's palace he built on the Mediterranean Sea. The ocean looked great so we decided that on the way to the airport we would swim in ocean at the old port city of Joppa after lunch. That was cut short by all the trash in the ocean. We took our showers and called it a day.

So here we are at Ben Gurion Airport waiting to check our bags in at 8 pm. We have. Mixed feelings - we want to come home to family but we want to stay to keep exploring. It's been a GREAT trip but I think I'm looking forward to gettinng back. We'll see you in about 24 hours!!
